| audio mirror dac Clio09 - I'll be using a Ridge Steet Audio Poiema!! Digital Master. Vlad is going to put a BNC on for me instead of the RCA. For a powercord, I have a couple of choices: Signal Cable HC Digital, TG Audio SLVR or a VH Audio Flavor 4.Transports I'll... | |
| audio mirror dac Well, I've taken the plunge on the Sig. D1 DAC. The only players / DACs I have heard are upsamplers and it piques my interest to try out a non-os DAC. Should I let it burn-in for a length of time or is it listenable out of the box?Also going to gi... | |
| audio mirror dac What transports are Audio Mirror owners using to feed their D1 DAC? Would a quality transport be requisite for a DAC such as this (or the other non-os DACs)? | |
| Amp Help ICE or Class D Oldcar63 - not sure what your budget allows but the offerings from H2O Audio are another choice. Good info can be found on A'gon regarding the M250 and S250 amps.http://www.iceh2oaudio.com/ | |
| Marantz SA8260 Direct to Amp Warnerwh - could you elaborate more on blowing speakers when using a passive pre? In the past, I've used a passive (Placette RVC) without incident. | |
| Marantz SA8260 Direct to Amp Basically, the source component should have a low output impedance and the amp should have a high input impedance (100K ohm or >). The source also needs to have a high enough output voltage to drive the amp (input sensitivity).You should try ru... | |
| Poor man's IC cooker? That's a fine idea. I do a similar thing with speaker cables, hooked to the amp but not to the speakers. I place 8ohm power resistors on the speaker side of the cable. This way, I can burn them in without having the speakers play 24/7. For the sou... | |
| H2O Owner Survey ? Received my Signature S250 about 3 weeks ago. Henry was kind enought to run it 48 hrs. before shipping it. Out of the box, I had a hard time believing an amp could make such an improvement. Very satisfied with it in my system. | |
| New H20 Signature S250 Jeff - nice detail on both the Tact and H2O regarding power conditioning. Currently my Sig. S250 is plugged straight into the wall socket and powered down after each listening session. I'd like to try out an Ultimate Outlet or even their UPC-200 w... | |
| New H20 Signature S250 I'd consider leaving it on, power draw not an issue but the chance of damage from surges, spikes and the like has me concerned. | |
| New H20 Signature S250 Any thoughts on leaving the S250 powered on continuously or power down after each listening session? | |
| Mark Levinson/Revel Support is tops I agree, their support and service is quick given the transition the company went through. The emails I have sent have been answered quickly and thorougly. My 390S player was sent back for service and they had it fixed within a week although it wa... | |
| What's Your Experience with Digital Switching Amp? Kana - what's your contribution to this thread, other than being an antagonist?Do you have anything to offer regarding the topic?Let's keep this thread on the topic of Class D amps and not attack each other!! | |
| Cary CD308 Display I owned a 308 and the display was solid. The player did have other issues which Cary chose to dismiss and led to trading it in for another brand. | |
| What's Your Experience with Digital Switching Amp? I'm very pleased with the improvement the H2O Signature S250 has brought to my system. Likely, there are offerings from other amp manufacturers which also would have yielded improvements.I'm not an H2O salesman, nor their puppet. |
